Biosafety Guidelines for Manufacture of Vaccines and Biologicals

摘要

WHO is called on by its constitution 'to develop, establish and promote international standards with respect to .... biological ... products.' Accordingly, WHO sets international biological standards and provides relevant information to national health authorities so that national standards, calibrated in international units, can be established. Through this process WHO will assure that vaccines and other biological products developed through its programmes and others offered through international trade will be safe for use by the general public.
